Donald Trump's 'locker room talk' was a lot more than just talk By Mark Sumner

It wasn’t Trump’s gross, overt bragging about how his position of power entitles him to commit sexual assault that opened the floodgates. It was his claims that those words … were only words.

Over the space of 24 hours, it has become clear that Donald Trump’s “locker room talk” was a lot more than just talk. Multiple witnesses—and victims—of his actions have come forward. In that brief period we’ve learned that: * Trump used his ownership of beauty pageants to sneak backstage while contestants were undressed, including at teen pageants with girls as young as 14. * Trump assaulted and constrained a People Magazine reporter who was sent to write a story on his “wedded bliss.” * Trump assaulted a woman on a plane who simply had the bad luck to be seated next to him. * Trump forced a kiss on a woman who introduced herself in Trump Tower, and kept her from leaving. * Trump kissed other contestants at his pageants without their permission. * Trump groped a woman he encountered at his Mar-a-Lago resort. * Trump kissed and groped yet another of his pageant contestants. * Trump leered at a 10-year-old and said he “would be dating her in ten years.” * Trump closed out the evening by denying everything and firing off frivolous legal threats.
And that doesn’t even cover the latest madness in Trump's rally speeches, where incoherent babble was broken by additional threats to lock up Hillary Clinton, lock up Hillary’s lawyers, “investigate the investigation” (and presumably lock up the Justice Department). And by not just attacks on other Republicans, but claims that there was a 'sinister deal' being made to stop him.
Trump’s campaign isn’t just melting down, it’s going on up in flames.
